PowerScript component targets

EAServer Component Target wizard

You use the EAServer Component Target wizard to create a new target containing a custom class user object (to which you later add methods and properties) with the characteristics required by an EAServer component object that you can deploy to EAServer. If you want to create an EAServer component in an existing target, use the wizard on the PB Object page.

Access to the EAServer component from a PowerBuilder client application is gained through a Proxy object. You create a Proxy object using the EAServer Proxy wizard on the Project tab page.

COM/COM+ Component Target wizard

The COM/COM+ Component Target wizard creates a new target containing a custom class user object (to which you later add methods and properties) with the characteristics needed to be a component object that you can deploy to a Microsoft COM+ server. If you want to create a COM or COM+ component in an existing target, use the wizard on the PB Object page.

Automation Server Target wizard

The Automation Server Target wizard creates a new custom class user object (to which you later add methods and properties) with the characteristics needed to be an automation server. You can access methods in the user object from clients built with OLE-enabled applications such as PowerBuilder, Visual Basic, and Visual C++.
